How was the Holocoust a hoax?

Question

How was the Holocoust a hoax?

Answer 1

The Holocaust happened; it was not a hoax.

Answer 2

It's not.  Only anti-semitic bigots think it's a hoax.  In their immature and convoluted minds, they think that the massacre of more than 7 million people that is documented in every medium was just a conspiracy.  It's not a hoax at all, try telling that to someone with a permanent tattooed number on their arms from the camps or the lives lost due to the Hitler regime.

Answer 3

Eisenhower ordered the collection of documentary evidence to substantiate the horrors and the extent of those horrors.  He did this because he was afraid that no one who wasn't present could bring themselves to believe the words of the survivors and the liberators.  It is so truly horrifying, that even with mountains of substantiation, some people can not bring themselves to believe it took place.  It beggars the imagination.

Answer 4

it's not- there's many sources out there that proves that the holocaust was real. for anyone who challenges the idea of it being a hoax are in complete denial, and ignorant- they just refuse to believe that it did happen.

Answer 5

it def wasnt...but i like the question you're asking....i'd like to hear how all of those skeptic back up their outrageous claim.

Answer 6

it was not a hoax, but the naysayers claim it was staged by the Jews to generate sympathy. They claim there was no active plan to exterminate the Jews, but they Jews themselves either took pictures or faked pictures to create that illusion.

It's complete nonsense of course, but people that hate hard enough will always find an excuse. Then, if you put those people in a position of influence or power, they teach that view to everyone and it becomes "common knowledge".

Answer 7

It wasn't - the only people who think it was are n***s or Hitler fantasists.

Answer 8

Answer 9

People who believe that are ignorant, uneducated conspiracy theorists.  I can't help associate them with Mel Gibson's crazy father.  In the '40s and '50s, however, there were many people around the world in denial of the event.  One French documentary film Nuit et Broulliard (Night and Fog) shown, I believe, at the Cannes revealed unabashedly the gore and inhumanity of the concentration camps.  As survivors recovered, many published histories, memoirs, books, etc., the most famous being Elie Weisel's Night and The Diary of Anne Frank, all of which aided in the world's consciousness of the event.  I find it strange why the French (it was something insane like over half the population) disbelieved the reality of the Holocaust.  But I think many in the world today deny its reality, but in a different form: we forget that this was only half a century ago.  Such barbarity is capable in even these "enlightened" times.
